[Intro – whispered, distorted]
From beneath the water…
A silence breaks…
Something wakes…
Something ancient…
Something that should not rise…
[Verse 1]
Steel ships line the river like kings in a row
Cannons flash fire, but they don’t even slow
We thought iron would hold, we thought we were strong
But the water turned black where the nightmare belongs
Boots on the deck, hands shaking in time
Smoke in our lungs, but the sky still won’t cry
Then the tide split open like a wound in the deep
And something began that the world couldn’t keep
[Pre-Chorus]
Legs like towers crushing the shore
Steps echo louder than cannon or war
We fire at shadows, we scream into flame—
But nothing we hit is the thing we can tame
[Chorus – powerful, chant-like]
Black tide rising—hear the iron scream!
Baba Yaga walking through a broken dream!
We fire and fall, but she won’t kneel!
Legs of a titan made of nightmare steel!
Black tide rising—through the Thames she crawls!
London watches as the empire falls!
We stand and fight but we cannot win—
When the monster beneath begins to swim…
[Verse 2]
Airships descend with their bombs in the sky
Blades and fire raining down from on high
But every strike tears the titan’s skin wide
And something inside it begins to slide
Blisters erupt like a fevered hive
Open too much, now the dead come alive
Winged horrors spill from the wounds it sustains
From a god that devours its own broken frame
[Pre-Chorus]
We aimed at the beast but we opened the door
Now the sky isn’t ours anymore
Every attack just makes it grow
Feeds the abyss we could never know
[Chorus – louder, more aggressive]
Black tide rising—hear the iron scream!
Baba Yaga walking through a broken dream!
Bombs fall down but the terror flies—
From every wound, something else arises!
Black tide rising—hear the city cry!
Steel meets flesh and the brave still die!
We struck the giant and lost control—
Now the nightmare has a thousand souls…
[Bridge – haunting, slowed]
No prayers left… no saints to call…
Only shadows climbing the walls…
The river bends… the tower shakes…
The ground itself begins to break…
A voice like thunder under the skin—
“Why do you fight what you cannot win?”
[Breakdown – intense, glitch, whispered rap]
Fire in the veins, iron in the blood
We built our walls but they drowned in the flood
Hit it again, but it multiplies
Open the wound and the darkness flies
From the channel deep to the city gates
We tried to fight but we sealed our fates
Not just a beast—it’s a living war
Every hit makes it hunger for more
[Final Chorus – full power, choir layered]
Black tide rising—London burns tonight!
Baba Yaga steps into the fading light!
Iron falls and the guns go silent—
We tried to fight but the world went violent!
Black tide rising—hear the empire fall!
One last echo, one last call!
From the depths where nightmares spin—
The titan rises… and it wins…
[Outro – whispered, fading]
From beneath the water…
Something remains…
Still walking…
Still rising…
